If you want read some stupid remarks read this: fool.com Go towards bottom and you will find totally crazy statements like this and more: The Web effectively removes the "random" side of shopping -- the randomness of physical location, both yours and the stores -- that exists offline.

Using the WWW.acses.com plow price search engine I recently bought three different textbooks at three different retailers. I am sure they made little or no money and the sale.
